Just a vent here, mom is not a lot of work, but timing of her stuff is, meals, afternoon snack, bag drain, ect. She is sure enjoying are nice Spring temps out side, me too. She walks the driveway, about 100ft back and forth a few times, sits and knits then a walk again.
My thing is it is the same thing every day, and my schedule is not the same, so I cook 4 meals at different times for us. I just start getting into something for myself then it is something for mom, ect.
Working with some resources for a day or 2 off, even if I am here, no interruptions. I dont want to go with a service, they change personel, I rather get some one from are Parish or local neighbor. We would pay the the same, about $25 an hour cash in there pocket, where a service charges that and keeps about $13 in there pocket, and pays the care giver about $12
Ya Ya Ya Dusty, the camera battery is in the charger, I just want all to be perfect for you, the $80 wood worker bench is coming Sunday so you just have to wait for Christmas morning!!!! ;)

I remember reading "Honor your father and mother, and with a long life will I satisfy you..."

You do well to care for your mother. Someone promised to do well by you.

Blessings

Everett, thanks, she is appreciative of all I do. she tells me that at bed time hug, but she is a bit biased, but to here it from a stranger, a fellow SS person makes up for some of my frustrations :D
